Outline of Final Research Achievements

We implemented an experimental research of the advanced functionalization and the enlargement of sensitive area for the instrumentation that detects cosmic dusts by the use of piezoelectricity PZT element. As a result, the following concrete results were achieved; (1) a technique for distinguishing true event and false event when dust with a speed of >1km/s and a size of less than several microns is detected for advanced functionalization, and (2) a technique of the polyimide membrane with the piezoelectric element as pick up sensor for the enlargement of sensitive area.
